Looking for the latest hot spot in Miami Beach? We\u2019ve got two words: Bar Shishi<\/a>.<\/p>\n

On Thursday night, celebrities descended on the grand opening of the Tokyo-inspired speakeasy, inside the Rivani building at 1691 Michigan Ave. The exotic meets sleek hangout just steps from Lincoln Road is brought to us by Los Angeles based h.wood Group,<\/a> which also runs Delilah in Brickell.<\/p>\n

Among the VIPs: Bruno Mars, who just did two back-to-back shows<\/a> at Hard Rock Stadium over the weekend; \u201cShark Tank\u201d investor Daymond John; actor\/TV personality Terrence J; basketball heir Marcus Jordan; \u201cLove Island USA\u201d season 8 bombshell Jennifer Terry; and \u201cReal Housewives of Miami\u201d vets Adriana de Moura and Alexia Nepola.<\/p>\n

The swanky celebration kicked off with a ribbon-cutting for the Rivani, a $125 million, 163,000-square-foot mixed\u2011use office\/lifestyle destination from local hospitality giant Robert Rivani. Afterward, guests made their way up to Shishi, tucked away on the third floor with a mysterious entrance. The name means \u201clion\u201d in Japanese and has a requisite lion sculpture guarding the door.<\/p>\n

The well-heeled crew mixed and mingled while tucking into upscale Asian bites like hamachi crudo, hand rolls and deep fried (katsu) wagyu steak. Potent cocktails featuring herbs and fruit were shaken and stirred with ice that was meticulously hand-carved on site by bartender extraordinaire Kevin Lee.<\/p>\n

At one point during the festivities, DJ Pee Wee (aka Anderson Paak, Mars\u2019 opening act) took over the turntables inside the vinyl booth to hype up the crowd even more.<\/p>\n

Seems like a good time was had by all. In the comments section of Rivani\u2019s Instagram post touting the fancy watering hole, a few chimed in:<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat a night,\u201d wrote Daymond John.<\/p>\n

Marcus Jordan agreed: \u201cA night for the books.\u201d<\/p>\n
